What law are they breaking? Not trying to defend Google or anything, just curious what law is blatantly being broken here because I don’t know of one

I think they still can but they have less fine control over which ad placements they disable? I’m not totally sure, but that’s what this link seems to imply https://support.google.com/youtube/answer/6332943?hl=en

Those YouTubers have the option to disable ads on their channel if that is truly all the revenue they need, you don’t need to make that decision for them

That’s not even comparable to the amount that’s happening in the US, we’ve definitely got a bigger systemic problem here. With that being said Im not a fan of these kinds of memes anyways, it’s not that theyre incorrect, I just don’t think kids getting murdered en masse is funny

Lmao clipart memes need to be a thing

The real cost of gas and milk is the environment

It’s probably a healthy mindset to be hard on yourself for running stop signs, you’re gonna get somebody killed dude

It’s true, my uncle’s cousin works for Cellebrite and says they can even hack into our brains

This has to be an intentionally bad idea lol, most albums are longer than 30 minutes and this would ruin the flow

This is needlessly splitting hairs, Linus Tech Tips is absolutely part of the tech industry, and the parallels to other horror stories of the tech industry are too great to ignore. The people working on these videos are tech professionals similar to yourself, they test software similar to what you make, they have a company culture similar to tech startups, and other tech professionals consume their videos giving them influence in the tech community. They may not be doing the same thing in the industry as you are, but that doesn’t mean they aren’t part of it.

I would say it’s both, it is an extremely tech centric media production company with many employees who are tech professionals. That’s an interesting point though, the tech culture and media production culture definitely both seem to be at play here. This story just stirred up a lot of feelings for me on this recurring pattern I’ve been seeing in the tech industry as a whole, and many are rightfully pointing out that these problems aren’t just limited to the tech industry.

That’s a great point, unions are really under utilized in tech and would help a ton with this. I’m not sure if forming a union is 100% of the solution though, there are powerful unions in hollywood and sexism has still been allowed to run rampant there for example. Unions are comprised of the workers, many of whom are contributing to the problem, this isn’t just an issue coming from the top

This is the only comment/post you’ve ever made, and it’s meta lol. Be the change you want to see

Oh god I’d be afraid to call her that in public lol. Sounds way too much like whiffer which would be very rude

They call em fingers, but I’ve never seen them fing … oh there they go

Gaga’s Chromatica and Joji’s Nectar dropped, what else even happened?

YouTube is a full blown movie house as well as a place for independent creators *Oops I was wrong

Rhetoric like this discourages women from becoming engineers, saying that a female tech lead isn’t even a possibility is pretty sexist. For the record, if you had just said “he” without the sassy parenthetical I wouldn’t have batted an eye.

*Now that I think about it, pretty sexist is an understatement, it’s just plain sexist. Female tech leads exist, look it up, and stop perpetuating sexist ideas in tech

Both! You’re probably a lot better than you give yourself credit for but also haven’t made enough mistakes yet to see the error of your code

This is the funniest thing ever. The way each of the characters faces progress throughout the frames. The 69 of it all. Stunning. Art.
